This timely book represents an exciting new synthesis which has taken into account emerging data on the biology of psychopathy, including its neurocognitive basis. The authors lucidly describe discoveries about emotional processing in psychopaths and new thinking about its psychiatric nosology. They have performed a notable service in providing this highly readable survey, which summarises objectively the strengths and weaknesses of various theoretical accounts, including their own, and the implications for forensic, adult and child psychiatry. Trevor Robbins, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Cambridge
A comprehensive summary of recent research on the cognitive, emotional, and neurological correlates to psychopathy.

"the book as a whole contains a wealth of information and insight that make it an excellent avenue into the current state of knowledge and thinking about psychopathy. The authors′ scholarship is unquestionable, and they bring together an exceptional amount of information within a manageable number of pages...The book will provoke considerable thought from students, practitioners, and researchers who will have to integrate their thinking on this vital topic." David Nussbaum, PsycCRITIQUES
